(May 15, 2018-Franklin, MA) Paws, Inc. and Bare Tree Media expand their digital partnership to offer Garfield augmented reality effects within popular mobile messaging platforms Snapchat and Facebook. Garfield fans can transform their selfie videos using the Garfield Snapchat Lens and Garfield Facebook AR Camera Filter. The augmented reality effects are currently available and easy for fans to use and share through the respective mobile messaging platforms.

The expansion of Garfield into augmented reality is a natural fit given Bare Tree Media has created and published Garfield Facebook frames, messaging stickers, and sticker-photo apps.

“We are proud to launch our first series of branded augmented reality effects based on Garfield and expand digital opportunities with Paws,” says Bob Ferrari, CEO of Bare Tree Media.

“We are excited for Garfield fans to experience augmented reality through innovative solutions created by Bare Tree Media,” says Jim Davis the creator of Garfield.
